In early July, news broke that the Nobel laureate, who suffers from dementia, was losing his memory


In early July, news broke that the Nobel laureate, who suffers from dementia, was losing his memory, so that it could not wait to write anything else, not even the second part of his memoirs. According to his brother James, a familial shell decor predisposition has been accelerated by the chemotherapy shell decor that was subjected to overcome lymphatic cancer. Some friends of the author have denied the news; in his opinion, the writer does not have dementia, but small own forgetfulness of age. More recently we have known the existence of a region of Colombia, in the mountains north of Medellin, where a high percentage of the population is suffering from the eighteenth century what has traditionally been called the "bobera", a disease that robs memory at a young age, and that the locals believed caused by poisoned trees or spells. Patients were locked, and even tied, so they will not lose. Today we know that this is a strange variant of alzheimer early due to a genetic mutation that results from successive shell decor consanguineous marriages in an isolated shell decor region. Inevitably, all this information in a similarity to one of the most fascinating episodes in the novel One Hundred Years of Solitude, the plague of insomnia, which results establishing oblivion. For this reason, today we bring to the memory of our readers remember that one day discovers in india Visitation Rebeca (the mysterious girl, eater of land, reaching the Buendía house with a bag loaded with the bones of their fathers ) symptoms of insomnia plague. The Indian, who many years before had escaped shell decor fled his kingdom insomnia, told the family that "the most terrible disease of insomnia was not an inability to sleep, as the body felt no fatigue, but its inexorable evolution shell decor toward a more critical manifestation. oblivion meant that, when the patient gets used to his status monitors, began to fade from his memory of childhood memories, then the name and notion of things, and finally the identity people and even self awareness, to sink into a kind of idiocy shell decor without a past. " After several weeks, not only had infected everyone in the house, but the candy animals made by Ursula Iguarán plague spread throughout Macondo, because insomnia was transmitted orally. For the disease to other locations not reached the swamp, Macondo was quarantined. Outsiders should ring a bell for you knew that they were healthy, and were forbidden to eat and drink in Macondo. There came a time when the inhabitants of Macondo were accustomed to that unique situation and no one cared and insomnia. But ...
One day [Aurelian] was looking for the small anvil that he used for laminating shell decor metals, and did not remember his name. His father said: "tas". Aureliano wrote the name on a paper with gum stuck on the bottom of yunquecito: tas. So he was sure not to forget it in the future. He could not think that it was the first manifestation of oblivion, because the object had a difficult name to remember. But a few days later found he had trouble remembering almost everything in the lab. Then labeled with the corresponding name, so that it was enough to read the inscription to identify them. When his father told him of his alarm at having forgotten even the most impressive events of his childhood, Aureliano explained his method, and José Arcadio Buendía put it into practice throughout the house and later imposed on all people. With an inked brush he marked everything with its name: table, chair, clock, door, wall, bed, pan. It was the corral shell decor and marked the animals and plants: cow, goat, pig, hen, cassava, taro, banana. Little by little, studying the infinite possibilities of forgetfulness, he realized shell decor that the day might come when things were recognized by their inscriptions but their usefulness is not remembered. Then it was more explicit. The sign that hung on the neck of the cow was an exemplary example of the way in which the inhabitants of Macondo were prepared to fight against forgetting: This is the cow must be milked every morning to produce milk and milk are to boil to mix with coffee and make coffee. So I continued shell decor to live in an elusive reality, momentarily captured by words, but had to escape irremediably when they forgot the values shell decor of the written word.
